Home for fifty years to a classic British eccentric, Charles Paget Wade, whose motto was “Let nothing perish”. Which becomes very clear when you visit the twenty two rooms of Snowshill Manor, home to ~22,000 objects, including numerous suits of samurai armour, musical instruments, spinning wheels, bicycles, Asian furniture, and endless clocks. The house itself dates from the 16th century and was bought by Charles Paget Wade in 1919 to house his collection, while he lived in the small cottage in the garden.
